    Mr. Big Dog got a reaction from Póg mo in $15 Minimum Wage Advocacy Group Posts Facebook Job Listing That Pays $12 An Hour   
    What hypocrisy? They offer $5.00 (or roughly 70%) above federal minimum wage upon hiring and $15.00/hr after the short probationary period. That's a hell of a lot more than many large corporations put on the table and it does get the staffers to the demanded pay within a single quarter. Tell you what: let the target corporations put that offer on the table and the $15.00/hr wage movement will cheer, take it and go away.

    In fact, in a secular country, such as the United States of America, a religious marriage has no validity. What really counts is the civil marriage certificate. You can marry in every church on the land and under all gods in in all pantheons of mythology and yet you won't be legally married until you have your ceremony at city hall.
    This is something that many of superstitious can't understand.

    Isn't it great that you don't have to get married by a minister?

    Incidentally, nobody is asking for any such thing. All the homosexual community was looking for was equality before the law. Who cares about the churches?

    Can we just all agree that Sarah Palin is a little tramp whose bank is open for any customer who wants to stop by and make a deposit and move on?

    So after 90 days, the pay goes up to $15 an hour? I'm not sure what you are outraged about!

    You (as in all parties involved) are likely to end up paying more for those two one-way tickets than what you'd pay for a round trip. I'd consider buying the round trip and then splitting the cost. Everyone wins. Well, everyone except the airlines.

    I don't worship anyone but there is this pesky old supremacy clause in the US Constitution and because it is there, the remaining bigots in Texas can go an F themselves. They lost and all the last bit of resistance is really just pathetic. And ROFL on your 1857 decision. Long obsolete. Just as the garbage that Texas has just passed. All obsolete, too.

    I can't wait for the infighting and mudslinging between the Republican 'presidentiables' to begin. The pop and popcorn are ready on my side.

    Oh dear. A self proclaimed 'international playboy' grasping at straws to defend his 'right to marry someone of a different race' (permitted via SCOTUS' Loving v. Virginia) while excoriating others' hard-fought right to marry someone of the same sex (permitted now via SCOTUS' Obergrfell v. Hodges). That blind spot is so huge an 18-wheeler can drive through it. Give it up. You lost in the court of public opinion (60% of Americans support same-sex marriage) and you lost again at the Supreme Court.

    The DA evidently told her to issue the licenses, because a couple of hours later, she claimed that the vendor who generates the necessary forms was the problem as they had not yet updated the forms.

    And this law is unconstitutional and the ruling of the Supreme Court will be upheld. We WILL be vindicated.
    If the government stayed out of marriage, then you wouldn't be able to marry women of non-white races, VOL. Or do you think that Loving was a mistake and that decision should have been left up to the citizenry of Virginia, too?
    I was at two separate rallies last night celebrating. The message was 'Tomorrow we work for the rights we don't have--employment non-discrimination, housing non-discrimination, trans protections, People of Colour protections--but tonight, we feast! Also YOU Texas, you FAILED and we WON!'
